beauty is ethereal
floating on gossamer wings
filling emptiness between
breaths taken and breaths exchanged
patterns on the horizon sing

What do I say - I love this. I love the idea - the space between breaths is beautiful. I picture a couple standing close, almost holding their breath with the emotion of the moment. The feeling between them is the beauty between breaths taken and breaths exchanged.
Very nicely done.

Atmospheric beauty- This sends me into a world without gravity or ground, somewhere in the realms of dragonflies and fairy rings in the sunlight....
Lovely.

beautiful imagery, the intimacy of warm breath all the way to the horizon.
